# Finch: Benchmarking Finance & Accounting across Spreadsheet-Centric Enterprise Workflows |
|
|
|
|
|
This repository contains the dataset for **Finch**, an enterprise-grade benchmark for evaluating an agent’s ability to work like a skilled finance & accounting expert (work IQ) on real-world professionel workflows. |

## Dataset Description |
|
|
|
|
|
Finch focuses on **messy and long-horizon finance & accounting workflows** that span: |
|
|
|
|
|
> data entry/import, structuring/formatting, web search, cross-sheet/file retrieval, calculation, financial modeling, validation, translation, visualization, and reporting. |
|
|
|
|
|
The workflows are derived from **real-world enterprise workspaces** (primarily Enron, as well as corporations in the EUSES Corpus, investment and securities companies, World Bank, Canadian/British government agencies, and more), including: |
|
|
|
|
|
- Enterprise **email threads** where collaborators naturally describe, discuss, and track workflows |
|
|
- Large and messy **spreadsheets** with multimodal artifacts including text, tables, formulas, charts, pivots, images, etc |
|
|
- Interlinked **PDFs and documents** that provide additional business context |
|
|
|
|
|
We adopt a three-step workflow labeling process: |
|
|
|
|
|
1. **Inducing workflow types and instances** from real collaborative context in **enterprise email threads** (Enron Corpus: 500,000 emails from 150 executives and employees). |
|
|
2. **Deriving concrete workflow instances** by analyzing changes across **spreadsheet versions** (15,000 versioned spreadsheets from Enron and EUSES) and designing workflows based on high-quality artifacts from investment and securities companies, World Bank, Canadian/British government agencies, WideSearch, Dabstep, and more. |
|
|
3. **Conductin meticulous expert annotation** of task instructions, input files, and reference outputs, involving hundreds of hours of expert work. |
|
|
|
|
|
This process yields **172 enterprise-grade workflows—primarily multi-task composite**, involving 1,710 spreadsheets and 27 million cells, capturing the intrinsic **compositional, messy, multimodal, and collaborative nature** of real-world finance & accounting work. In this release, we provide full annotations for the first 72 workflows, with the remaining 100 to be released in a subsequent update. |
|
|
|
|
|
Experiment results show that even frontier agents (GPT 5.1 Pro and Claude Sonnet 4.5 Pro) solve fewer than 40% of the workflows, revealing a substantial performance gap for real-world enterprise scenarios. |

## 📁 Dataset Structure |
|
|
|
|
|
The instruction-tuning corpus is released in **JSONL** format. |
|
|
Each line corresponds to one **workflow-centric example**: |
|
|
|
|
|
```json |
|
|
{ |
|
|
"id": "<workflow identifier>", |
|
|
"instruction_en": "<English task instruction for a finance & accounting workflow>", |
|
|
"source_files": ["<input file name>", "..."], |
|
|
"source_files_urls": ["<input file download URL>", "..."], |
|
|
"reference_outputs": { |
|
|
"files": ["<reference output file name>"], |
|
|
"text": "<textual reference output>" |
|
|
}, |
|
|
"reference_file_urls": ["<reference output file download URL>"], |
|
|
"task_type": "<task category (e.g., reporting, modeling)>", |
|
|
"business_type": "<business domain (e.g., budgeting, trading)>" |
|
|
} |
|
|
``` |
